1倚靠主之歌到那日，在猶大地必有人唱這歌：“我們有座堅固的城；耶和華把救恩作為城牆和外郭。
1In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah: “We have a strong city. God appoints salvation for walls and bulwarks.
2打開城門吧！好讓公義和信實的國民，可以進入。
2Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter: the one which keeps faith.
3專心倚靠你的，你必保護他一切平安，因為他倚靠你。
3You will keep whoever’s mind is steadfast in perfect peace, because he trusts in you.
4你們要倚靠耶和華，直到永遠，因為耶和華是永存的磐石。
4Trust in Yahweh forever; for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting Rock.
5他使那些驕傲的降卑，使那些高聳的城敗落；把它拆毀，散在地上，變作塵土。
5For he has brought down those who dwell on high, the lofty city. He lays it low. He lays it low even to the ground. He brings it even to the dust.
6它要被腳踐踏，就是困苦人的腳和貧窮人的腳。
6The foot shall tread it down; Even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.”
7義人的路是正直的，正直的主啊！你必修平義人的路。
7The way of the just is uprightness. You who are upright make the path of the righteous level.
8耶和華啊！我們等候你那審判的路徑；你的名字和稱號，都是我們心裡所愛慕的。
8Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, have we waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
9夜間我的心渴想你，我裡面的靈切切尋求你，因為你的審判臨到大地的時候，世上的居民就會學習到甚麼是公義了。
9With my soul have I desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me will I seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
10惡人雖然蒙了恩待，他仍不知道甚麼是公義；在公義的地上，他仍然行惡，也看不見耶和華的威嚴。
10Let favor be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness. In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully, and will not see Yahweh’s majesty.
11耶和華啊！你的手高舉，他們還是看不見。願他們因看見你對子民的熱心而慚愧；願那為你的敵人預備的火吞滅他們。
11Yahweh, your hand is lifted up, yet they don’t see; but they will see your zeal for the people, and be disappointed. Yes, fire will consume your adversaries.
12耶和華啊！你必使我們得平安，因為我們所作的，都是你為我們成就的。
12Yahweh, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also worked all our works for us.
13耶和華我們的 神啊！在你以外，曾有別的主管轄我們，但只有你，我們要承認你的名。
13Yahweh our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but by you only will we make mention of your name.
14死去的不能再活，離世的不能再起來，因為你懲罰他們，消滅了他們，使他們完全不再被記念。
14The dead shall not live. The deceased shall not rise. Therefore have you visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish.
15耶和華啊！你增添國民；你增添國民，你得了榮耀，又拓展了地的四境。
15You have increased the nation, O Yahweh. You have increased the nation! You are glorified! You have enlarged all the borders of the land.
16耶和華啊！我們在急難中尋求你；你的懲罰臨到我們身上的時候，我們就傾心吐意低聲禱告。
16Yahweh, in trouble they have visited you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.
17懷孕的婦人臨產時怎樣疼痛，在絞痛中喊叫；耶和華啊！我們在你面前也是這樣。
17Like as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs; so we have been before you, Yahweh.
18我們也曾像懷孕一般疼痛，但所生的像風；我們未曾在地上行過拯救的事，世上的居民也未曾因我們生下來。
18We have been with child. We have been in pain. We gave birth, it seems, only to wind. We have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
19屬你的死人要活過來，他們的屍體要起來；那些住在塵土裡的必醒起，並且歡呼。因為你的甘露像早晨的甘露般臨到，使地交出離世的人來。
19Your dead shall live. My dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast forth the dead.
20勸民逃避主的忿怒我的子民哪！快來，進入你們的內室，把你們的門關上；隱藏片刻，直到 神的忿怒過去。
20Come, my people, enter into your rooms, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself for a little moment, until the indignation is past.
21因為你看！耶和華從他的居所出來，要懲罰地上居民的罪孽；大地要露出其上所流的血，不再遮蓋被殺的人。”
21For, behold, Yahweh comes forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.
